Problems of Ethics in Higher Education.

Pettit, Lawrence K.

Educational Record, v71 n3 p34-38 Sum 1990

The requirement for legal behavior recognizes that the university is immersed in society and is subject to its rules; those rules are enforced by persons external to the academy. The need for ethical behavior, however, may require that the university stand apart from, or above, its supporting society. (MLW)
